#Snettisham Hoard F has some very strange stuff going on, but I think I'm starting to understand it.

Tidying up some torc admin before Christmas and have added a DOI and download PDF to the 'Detecting and Torcs' blog.

Seems it's a bit popular and I know several folks are using it for teaching etc (thank you! 😊)
